Laptop: ASUS TUF Gaming A16 FA608WI (2024)
CPU: AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 8GB (140W, MUX Switch)
Display: 16" IPS, matte, 2560 × 1600, 165Hz, 16:10 ratio
Brightness: 400 nits
Color coverage: 100% sRGB, 72% NTSC
RAM: 32GB LPDDR5x
Storage: 1TB SSD
Issues: [links provided]
Do you have suggestions on resolving this flickering problem? It’s quite severe. I’ve tested two identical models and both experienced the same issue. It occurs during all games when G-Sync is active, and I prefer not to turn it off since it affects smoothness. ASUS claims this device supports G-Sync, and there’s even a sticker indicating compatibility. However, using G-Sync causes constant screen flickering, rendering it nearly unusable. I’ve attempted various drivers, BIOS updates, and settings adjustments, but nothing resolves it. Is there a possible fix or is this a hardware fault? If others have faced similar problems or found solutions, please share!

In the Nvidia control panel, check if G-Sync is set for full screen only. If not, try the alternative setting (full screen and windowed). This adjustment resolved the flickering in certain games.

I use the same laptop and it keeps flickering while gaming too. I really like this laptop because it has excellent and stable temperature and efficient cooling; the other versions are way too hot. But the flickering is really annoying. I don’t know what to do...
